2023 Worlds WAG Team Final (Wednesday 10/04)

[jezmerallia]

So many unusual falls today. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone miss time a punch that way.

 

[Aeris]

Amazing floor from Andrade, just wow. Ou Yushan though

you could tell right when she punched though, that that wasn’t going to work

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

Anyone got the FIG link?

 

[SBaity]

I held my breath through that beam routine…

 

[ArnoldRimmer]

People fucking things up as soon as they start them seems to be a running theme tonight.

 

[Hatsumomo]

Yeah, honestly at this point, I’m half expecting Simone to fall somewhere.

 

[navyblue]

I love Simone so much. This whole concept of ‘angry beam’ seems silly but also true in her case.

 

[RichardL]

I want to see Ondine’s 13.9

 

[Sasha]

Please Flavia…

 

[jezmerallia]

Is it terrible that just before that skill I was thinking that she looked well fed? I feel like the Chinese gymnast always arrive to major competitions looking over-trained an slimmer than they do at their national competitions. It’s like they didn’t get the memo that gymnasts need to eat these days to compete well.

 

[Hatsumomo]

Flavinha!

 

[Sasha]

YAAASSSSS Flavia!!

 

[onodian]

Honestly I think it’s the body type they choose. It wasn’t always like that

 

[jezmerallia]

Flavia’s switch ring half is the only one that I can stand to watch.

 

[RichardL]

MJDS is having an awesome AA meet, I hope she can repeat on Friday.

 

[Gymfan93]

Brazils to loose now I think

 

[onodian]

biggest jinx of the night.

Gadirova wobbles and a little temptative, 8.9 E score I’m sure

 

[jezmerallia]

I remember Cheng Fei wanting to continue and being hounded about her weight and more mature body. I feel like she had so many interviews after 2008 saying things like she wanted to prove that gymnastics could be done with a woman’s body.

I don’t get why they keep sticking to aesthetically selected teams.

 

[RichardL]

Brazil and France neck and neck, but obviously Brazil is vaulting…
